Shen Rui looked at her, and he could see the joy in her eyebrows. If it weren't for Yuan Hao, she and her father would be very happy, right?
He didn't ask any more questions, but said: "When my son grows up, he will protect his mother and sister."
Mu Xuechu felt warm in her heart. She touched Shen Rui's head and said, "Good boy."
The carriage swayed toward the palace. Because the procession to welcome the bride had to walk around the city, the sedan chair had not yet entered the palace when they arrived.
The people who came to watch the ceremony today were all officials from the court and their families, so the palace was very lively.
It was the first time for Shen Rui to enter the palace. He saw that the palace was covered with a layer of red, which was really majestic and festive.
As he was looking around, he heard Youan call out: "Brother Xiao."
Xiao Youan pulled Shen Rui and ran towards Xiao Chengyi.
Xiao Chengyi looked at them and asked, "Are you feeling well?"
Xiao Youan patted his chest and said, "It's been fine for a long time. Where is Sister Mu? I haven't seen her for a long time."
Xiao Chengyi said: "Your sister Mu is pregnant and has difficulty moving. She is resting in the palace. You can see her later when you watch the ceremony."
Xiao Youan's eyes flashed and he hugged Xiao Chengyi and said, "Congratulations to Brother Xiao on becoming a father."
"Smelly boy."
Xiao Chengyi patted Xiao Youan's shoulder, looked at Shen Rui, and saw that he had been staring at him.
He asked: "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Shen Rui cupped his hands towards Xiao Chengyi and called: "Brother-in-law."
Xiao Chengyi raised his eyebrows, helped him up and said, "Why were you staring at me just now?"
Shen Rui said: "Because my brother-in-law is very powerful, You'an and I heard about your deeds when we were in Yuzhou. You conquered southern Xinjiang and calmed down the war in Mobei without using a single soldier. You are my The person I admire the most.”
Xiao Chengyi smiled and said: "I have also heard about your deeds, but you have caused me a lot of trouble."
Shen Rui lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Rui'er knows he was wrong."
Xiao Chengyi said: "Just admit your mistake. Your mother has already told you. If you have anything in the future, don't keep it in your heart. Just ask whatever you want to know. Got it?"
Shen Rui nodded heavily.
Xiao Chengyi said: "Okay, you go and play first. Come and watch the ceremony later. Don't go too far."
Shen Rui happily went shopping with Xiao Youan.
Xiao Chengyi looked at their retreating figures and couldn't help but think of the day when he and Xuandu went to Fansheng Temple.
After entering the gate of the temple, they saw Youan lying in front of the main hall, and Shen Rui lying on the ground of the main hall holding Xiao Miaoer.
After checking his pulse, he found that Youan was seriously injured and was holding his breath.
Xiao Miao'er and Shen Chi were infected with smallpox and were seriously ill. If they had left earlier, all three children would have been saved.
There seems to be guidance from the Buddha, but he prefers to believe that Shen Rui moved God. The blood on his head flowed all over the ground. I don't know how long he prayed in front of the Buddha.
This matter was not Shen Rui's fault, he was just a child, a child who saw himself being pushed into the lake by his mother and losing his home and relatives.
There was a wound in his heart, and none of them paid attention to it, which was why he made a mistake.
But in the end, he kept his conscience and his true heart, which shows that Shenchi was useful in his upbringing.
They are both Yuan Hao's children, but Shen Rui and Shen Wanyue are different. Shen Wanyue is evil in her bones, but Shen Rui is not. He has a clean heart.
Bloodline cannot determine anything. What can determine a person is his heart. A good heart will bring blessings, and a bad heart will have bad consequences.
